Time for a survey?

[Zedhed]

Alright, let's see who rides what.....

1. Choose whether you ride a metric or non-metric bike

2. State if it is a cruiser, tourer, sport-tourer, adventure-tourer, sport-bike, scooter, or trike.

3. Specify year, make, and model to verify.

4. Omit any accessories, pricing and NO OPINIONS about brands.

I will graph and post results after a reasonable period of time, the data can be used to determine the demographics of the members here and possibly lead to fewer verbal sparring matches.

The verbal sparring matches will cease only when the people with the bugs up their saddles about loud pipes and too much chrome quit starting things.

"The verbal sparring matches will cease only when the people with the bugs up their saddles about loud pipes and too much chrome quit starting things."

I must have missed the part of the survey that says "place irrelevant comments here".

I'm curious as to how knowing what people ride will lead to fewer verbal sparring matches?
